Abstract

ABSTRACTIn this paper, we compare B diffusion in epitaxial Si, Si with 0.1%C, SiGe with 11% Ge and SiGe:C with 11%Ge and 0.1%C at 1000°C under interstitial, vacancy and non-injection annealing conditions. Diffusion coefficients of B in each material were extracted by computer simulation, using secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) profiles obtained from samples before and after annealing.Interstitial injection enhances B diffusion considerably in all materials compared to inert annealing. In samples which experienced vacancy injection, B diffusion was suppressed. The results are consistent with the view that B diffusion in these materials occurs primarily via interstitialcy type defects.
